Although the clinic is filled at this moment, I will take a waiting list because we do know that horses get lame at the last minute. Those people who want to ride have to send me their $100 deposit asap to hold their space. Please contact jhankinsb@aol.com
Tom Poulin will be doing a clinic on Monday and Tuesday, June 20th and 21st, after the Green Country show in June. It will be at Judie Blumenthal's in Oklahoma City. In addition to being an excellent "S" judge, Tom believes that dressage is about training, not about breeding, Trained in the classical style, Tom was the assistant coach to both the Mexican and Swedish Olympic teams. He is a superb teacher and unfailingly courteous. He also uses different exercises than I have seen before so the rider has the opportunity to learn new ways of communicating with his/her horse.
People are lining up for this clinic so get your reservations in to me immediately. Reservations will be held by a check for $100.
Contact Judith Hankins Brown at jhankinsb@aol.com if you are interested in riding and for more information.
